Evenin'


also, a request if you will: anyone know where I might find a link to do forward-scrolly images properly, this was the result of hours of trial and error and it's still ver' ropey.

thankee
I'm sure it's all about perspective, science and maths but I am not clever/educated enough to do anything more complex just now!

Photoshop?
Ctrl T to transform mode
Hold Ctrl to move vanishing point

Scale image holding Shift and Alt

Press enter to apply transform

Keep pressing CtrlShiftAlt +T to create lots of duplicated frames scaled in the same way as previous frame

I shall try that!

for perfectly smooth looping:
Start the animation from the 3rd frame, and end it 2 frames before the end.

fade in the early unused frames over the top of the end of the animation, and fade out the unused end ones over the beginning.

I should have said layers rather than frames
but I think you understand :)

aye
first go I had an image getting bigger and bigger, but it's all good and I'm starting to get the hang of it. Cheers again

Sound advice
but makes for huger file size no?
( Pasanonic WARNING - May induce flouncing., Fri 11 Jan 2008, 18:47, archived)

how do you mean?
this is what I meant, if you do it with a picture of a road, it will make it loop nice and smoothly. gif size should be less, if anything.

awww!
are they meant to look like that or have you been giving the pregnant ones too much stella?
( Bloop is currently ignoring YOU, Fri 11 Jan 2008, 18:59, archived)

According to the keeper I was speaking to at lunchtime
all the antics of yesterday (our 'stock take') may have induced an early labour in the female, but it's to soon to tell; the pregnancy hadn't been noticed. The baby was still apparently fine when I last poked my head round the door of the Clore Rain-forest Walk through about half four. Press said no press release until they are confident it will survive, so this is a b3ta exclusive :)

oh dear
well good luck to the family then!
